I've come to the conclusion that psychology is a lie. Complete fabrication. In fact, psychologists would call it 'confabulation' if they ever realized what was going on. They just make things up, I swear.
Point-in-case: if called on in class, one can make up some answer and cite an experiment that may or may not support the argument, and it will be right. Doesn't even matter if the experiment is completely irrelevant to the topic. Any one will do, as long as you 'prove' your point.
Don't misunderstand me; I am majoring in Cognitive Science (aka psychology with other things attached). I love psychology, the mind-brain dilemma, the Freudian philosophies, perception, memory, biopsychology, etc. LOVE IT. I just think that some (probably most) psychologists are nutcases and really goodliars. Wrong word. They are really good at finding patterns that may or may not actually exist.
It may seem like I'm confused on this issue. Psychologists are a bunch ofliars and I love it. Um, no. It's just that when I take a psychology test, and I make up some answer because I have no idea, and then get full marks for it... something is wrong.
